It’s the afternoon, I’ve spent all morning cleaning the house and running errands, after spending all day yesterday cleaning the house and running errands, after spending Monday”¦ Anyway, it’s mid week and I find myself in a deep blue funk of futility. Whenever this happens, there are two choices. Go dig through the kid’s bag of…
Ah Halloween. That time of year where everyone gets together to celebrate peace, love, joy and the miracle of,no wait,that time where everyone puts on their spring floral best and gathers in harmony over bunnies and the miracle of,no wait,the time when leprechauns and green beer,no,ah yes, Pagans, rotting pumpkins, sorting through the countless racks of…
TV Review: Supernatural – “Ghostfacers” Before I get started, a belated Happy Birthday to Eric Kripke, who celebrated on Thursday. I only hope he wasn’t stressing out too much about the airing of the latest episode and enjoyed himself instead. He shouldn’t worry too much, for this episode was very well received. “Ghostfacers” proved to…
(This originally appeared on blogcritics.org back in November, 2008. Since then Blogcritics has deleted the entire archive of articles that I wrote for them, so I’m reposting those reviews here. Enjoy!) What a concept! A horror show where one of the main characters accurately states, “For us everyday is Halloween,” opts to do a…
What a concept! A horror show, in which one of its main characters accurately states “Everyday of our lives is Halloween,” opts to do a Halloween themed episode. Considering the Halloween season is a disastrous time in the Winchester family history, why not dress up the fact that this year isn’t proving to be any…
NOW: Shadow of a man running in the night. The slow pan upward reveals our frightened victim to be none other than Dean Winchester. He’s huffing and puffing, and streaking as if his life depends on it. He turns his head, and nothing is there but the sounds of hellhounds on his tail. He looks back, runs faster,…

I have to admit, I had my doubts after watching the first time. It wasn’t until after a re-watch the next day that this episode earned its favor with me. Maybe because the second time through I could sit down and actually pay attention to details. I should have learned by now that the only…
I sat at the keyboard for a while Thursday night, jaw hung open, unable to type a single letter, not exactly how to review this episode. Sure, “Time On My Side” was pretty shocking, but the preview for the next week’s season finale was what did it, turning me into an official mess until then….
DAMN YOU, KRIPKE!!!!! There, I feel better. No actually… hold on… *rubs ears gently while humming to self in attempts to calm down*… Nope, it ain’t working. This is the OMFG that the CW should have been promoting. For the record, this is my first Supernatural live season finale. I didn’t get into…
I have this vision that anytime Eric Kripke and Ben Edlund get in a room together and start sharing their ideas, everyone else backs away very slowly and leaves them alone. These two so far have produced such off the wall classics as “Hollywood Babylon”, “Bad Day At Black Rock”, and the most crazy of…
